BUZZZ

How it works the editorial way

BUZZZ connects domain holders with a family of publications that cover their fields.

The five steps

  1. Apply

    first

    Tell us who you are and where your work lives online.

  2. Admission

    then

    An editor reads every application. We admit domain holders when at least two publications genuinely cover their field.

  3. Go live

    next

    Add the BUZZZ link to your footer. It shows the website is yours, and it leads to your own press page, not away from you.

  4. Get featured

    within days

    You get each link as it publishes.

  5. Add to the buzz

    and always

    Send tips, quotes and news. Members who add to the buzz get more of it.

Your first features

Within 3 business days of your BUZZZ link going live, typically about 1 to 4 features are published. Each takes its own angle: a profile, a story about what you offer, a piece on your expertise, or a local angle. Every fact in each one is checked against its sources before it publishes.

After that, you are mentioned whenever a story genuinely fits your work. There are no link lists, sponsored boxes or automatic insertions: if a mention doesn't serve the reader, it isn't written.

Your press page

Every member gets a page at buzzzweb.com that lists their coverage and updates itself. The small BUZZZ link in your website’s footer leads there, so a click from your own website lands on your own press, not somewhere else.

Add to the buzz

Membership is complete on day one. If you want more, send quotes, tips, news and corrections from your member area, share your coverage, or nominate a business you admire.

Honest links

Three things are true of every page we publish:

  • Membership links are nofollow. Your footer badge, your press page and your onboarding features all carry nofollow, so membership never moves search rankings.
  • Admission is editorial. BUZZZ is application-only, and an editor reads every application against the same standards journalists rely on.
  • Mentions are never sold. Every later mention is an editorial call made for the reader. No link, mention or placement can be bought, and membership doesn't buy one.
